As a public servant, I think using LLMs to communicate with those we serve is deeply unethical and shows a true lack of respect for our public. I know I'm in the minority, though, which is a continual frustration.

even if you have good oversight of the entire supply chain, there are still things you can't control and those are ultimately the things that usually result in your shrimp getting irradiated

one consequence of globally available and cheap goods is those goods may come from places with very different safety protocols! and maybe you have some sort of accountability with your overseas supplier, but how much control do you really have? do you know who their suppliers are?

Oof, the sycophancy problem in LLM's + triggering on any irrelevant details you feed them, recently led a P2 problem call down the wrong pathing for hours. The chatbot is never going to TELL you to step back and ask if this entire inquiry is irrelevant to larger goal. This is your moat. It's mine.
